The San Diego Salsa Bachata Kizomba Festival is fast approaching and with it RitmoBello.com will be sending out updates and important information to help you plan for it.

A new thing that is being offered this year are dance specific dance passes where you can take advantage of your own workshops, dancing and mingling with like minded individuals. Kizomba dancers, for example, will have their own foyer, workshop room and social dancing area until 4am in the morning for the event on most nights. The unique passes will allow you to really hone in on a particular dance that you want to focus on and immerse yourself in that particular genre of music. You can learn more about these passes on the official San Diego Salsa Bachata Kizomba Festival Website (click here).

Keep your eyes on RitmoBello.com in the next few months with important updates on the San Diego Salsa Bachata Kizomba Festival.

The next Sabor on the Bay yacht party is already set in motion and tickets are already available for the event. Even though it’s only July, the tickets traditionally sell out well in advance so you are encouraged to secure your tickets now.

If you are new to the Sabor on the Bay events the concept is to have a fun filled 3 hour night of dancing, live music and lounging all on the 1,000 person capacity Inspiration Hornblower Yacht. This event will be unique as there is a Dia de Los Muertos/Halloween theme where you are encouraged to put together your best costume for the night. There will even be a $200 costume contest.

The San Diego Salsa and Latin Dancing Meetup Group in cooperation with RitmoBello.com will be attending the event and will be hosting a VIP table to serve as a meeting place for those planning on coming.

The group is made of 22 other organizers that include well known people here in San Diego such as David Stein of Majesty in Motion, Susie Nguyen Grafte from Ooh La La Dance company, Walter Meneses from Dancing After School, Gaby from Alma Latina and Serena Cuevas. The local Tango dance community is represented as well with organizer like Krista Ann and Tino. The events found on the calendar are truly crowd sourced content from those who know what is going on here in San Diego regarding dance.

The great thing about the group is that we are open to others from the community who want to help fill the calendar with fun events and socials any day of the week. If you are interested in becoming an event organizer send me a message.

With so much talent here in San Diego posting great events on the calendar you are sure to find one that best fits your schedule and interests.

The 7th Annual All White Boat Party is set to launch on June 13, 2015 and if you’ve been on the cruise in the past you know what fun is in store for you again this year.

If you are new to the event,though, I can try to paint a picture of what you can expect. The Inspiration Yacht (the largest of the vessels provided by Hornblower Cruises) will be jammed pack with 1,000 dancers ready to party the night away. Three dance floors will be available on the yacht with live salsa/bachata music, top 40 DJ’s spinning the best dance music and belly dance music as well. The event has a dress in all white theme which in my opinion adds a touch of elegance to the affair, especially when most folks show up in really nice white suits or beautiful white dresses.

If you want to catch a glimpse of what this all looks like this video does a good job of giving you a brief preview:

Tickets always sell out for this event so it would be a good idea to buy your tickets now to avoid being left at the dock.

If you are like me you are always looking to save money on everything from groceries to clothing and all things in between. This same frugality can be applied if you are new to social dancing and want to find a good deal on lessons here in San Diego.

Many of the deals found on such websites include up to 50% off or more on lessons ranging from basic salsa to newer dances like kizomba. Other offers include unlimited lessons within a given month when you buy the deal being promoted.

Brazilian Carnival comes to San Diego February 14th in the much anticipated San Diego Brazil Carnival of Love. Entering its 23rd year, the event is a high energy evening of shows, dancing, food and all things Brazilian all in one night.
